We have success.  quahog and sqeteague are now both up and running fine.  

quahog simply required a reboot; not sure what was wrong but the reboot cleared 
it (all cables were snug, cpu had power, monitor had a big X in the middle of 
it, but it wouldn't respond to keyboard entries).

squeteague had a break in the e-net cable on the floor; it was connected at the 
cpu and the wall, but not in between.  I reconnected; the console window came 
on and indicated a net timeout.  When it didn't look like it was going to try 
and re-establish the connection, I rebooted.  It came up fine.

Now we have a new, but smaller problem.  The keyboard on tautog has several 
(maybe 1/3 to 1/2?) of its keys are not responding when typed- you have to 
really hit 'em or hit 'em a couple of times to get them to work.  It makes for 
fun when trying to enter a non-echoed password!  Can we log a service call for 
this?  tautog info is included below.  Thanks for your help.
